Married to My Ex-Fiancé's Cousin-Chapter 920: Want to Hold You While Sleeping
"Oh." Qi Cheng had already heard about these things from Assistant Gao.
But, having spent so much time with Cheng Yanxi, he didn’t have that feeling of intense hatred.
After all, he had forgotten all the things Cheng Yanxi had done to him that weren’t good; he only remembered that when he was locked up by Zhou Yixiu, it was Cheng Yanxi who helped him every day, stayed with him, and gave him someone to rely on.
Ji Yunhuan looked at him with a naively obedient expression and thought... she didn’t even know where to direct her anger.
She looked at Qi Cheng helplessly and sighed, "Forget it, I was too hasty, I shouldn’t have pressured you, and I shouldn’t have come here to hide from you."
This method was really foolish.
Qi Cheng listened to Ji Yunhuan’s words and stared at her, "Then why did you just say you weren’t avoiding me?"
"..." Ji Yunhuan looked at him, both angry and exasperated, "Are you here specifically to argue with me?"
"Of course not," Qi Cheng said. "I just missed you, that’s why I came to see you. But when I’m not around, you don’t seem to miss me at all."
"Who says that?" Ji Yunhuan said, "You have no memory; how could you understand how much I miss you? You can’t possibly understand."
Qi Cheng frowned, "Are you looking down on me because I have no memory?"
Ji Yunhuan looked at him, reached out, and held his hand. During these two days of arguing with him, she had learned one thing: "When you were with Zhou Yixiu, was he always tormenting you?"
"..." Mentioning Zhou Yixiu made Qi Cheng’s face show a bit of unease, an instinctive fear kind of feeling.
When he met Zhou Yixiu, he was just someone with no memory, not the previous Qi Cheng, without that strong ability to cope with pressure, so the torment from Zhou Yixiu almost left him with psychological trauma.
Probably because of this, he relied so much on Cheng Yanxi.
Just seeing the unease flicker in Qi Cheng’s eyes, Ji Yunhuan could already imagine how excessively Zhou Yixiu had treated Qi Cheng.
"That damned jerk!" Qi Cheng said angrily.
Even if Qi Cheng didn’t say it, she could empathize with how perverted Zhou Yixiu was, after all, when she was imprisoned at Huai Xi Villa, hadn’t she experienced it too? Thankfully, Bai Liyan was there to help her at the time; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable.
But what about Qi Cheng?
He was all alone at Zhou Yixiu’s place, without anyone to help him...
Ji Yunhuan looked at Qi Cheng with sadness, "He must have made you suffer a lot, didn’t he?"
Qi Cheng saw that Ji Yunhuan was filled with hate for him one moment and looked at him with deep affection the next, and he laughed, "Weren’t you just hating me to death a moment ago?"
"That’s different," Ji Yunhuan said. "Hating you is just like hating iron for not becoming steel, but I don’t want to see you suffer."
She grasped his hand, "Qi Cheng, no matter what happens in the future, I will always be by your side, never letting anyone bully you again. Even if someone bullies you, I’ll be there with you."
"Oh." He looked at her and responded.
Ji Yunhuan laughed, "What’s with that reaction?"
"Thank you."
"Thank you my foot." Ji Yunhuan reached up and wiped the tears from her face. She thought of Cheng Yanxi and then remembered the suffering Qi Cheng had endured, suddenly feeling that her jealousy was indeed unnecessary; it was just like when she was in Huai Xi, after Bai Liyan helped her, she also trusted Bai Liyan immensely. Now, it was just that her and Qi Cheng’s positions were reversed.
Actually, her feelings didn’t matter at all, did they?
Compared to losing him, what else in this world could be more important?
Ji Yunhuan wiped her tears and said to Qi Cheng, "Go take a bath and sleep, you must be tired, right? Did you see a doctor before coming over?"
She hadn’t forgotten that he was still a patient. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮
"I’m fine," Qi Cheng said. "I’m doing well."
"Then go take a bath," Ji Yunhuan said to him.
Whenever she and Qi Cheng came here before, they always stayed here, so there were Qi Cheng’s things here, no need to specially prepare anything.
When Qi Cheng went to shower, Ji Yunhuan sat in the room, listening to the sound of water flowing from the bathroom, recalling the days before Qi Cheng had met with the accident, when they lived here, slept in this room at night...
Back then, she had never imagined that she and he would have to go through this.
Looking at everything in the room, she suddenly felt how lucky it was that he could still come back alive.
After Qi Cheng finished his shower and came out, he saw that Ji Yunhuan hadn’t slept yet. She sat on the bed, hugging a pillow in a daze. He followed her gaze and saw the family portrait there, of their family...
She was his wife, anyone could see it from the photo.
Qi Cheng sat down beside Ji Yunhuan, accompanying her to look at the photo, "It seems that I’ve really forgotten many important things."
Ji Yunhuan glared at him, "As long as you know."
Did he really think she was joking with him?
Qi Cheng turned to look at Ji Yunhuan, sometimes really unable to tell if she was angry or thinking about someone else.
Ji Yunhuan lay down on the bed, "Alright, sleep now."
Qi Cheng lay down beside her, "I want to hold you to sleep."
"..." From his tone, it seemed like he thought this was quite an offensive act to her.
His cautiousness made Ji Yunhuan find it somewhat amusing, "Actually, you like this are quite interesting too."
"Oh?"
"At least compared to before, you’re much more of a gentleman." Back then, whenever he wanted to hold her, when did he ever ask for her opinion? He would just pounce on her directly.
Compared to that, this Qi Cheng was much cuter.
Qi Cheng took it as her consent, reached out, and pulled her into his arms. The two lay on the bed, and Qi Cheng kept looking at the woman in his arms, which made Ji Yunhuan feel quite uneasy, "Why do you keep looking at me like that?"
"Looking at how beautiful you are." Qi Cheng gazed at her affectionately.
Ji Yunhuan couldn’t help but chuckle, "That’s enough, stop saying sweet things, I’m not listening."
Qi Cheng held Ji Yunhuan’s hand, looking into her eyes, "Weren’t you tired? Let’s sleep."
In the morning, Ji Yunhuan was still lying in bed when she heard Qi Cheng talking on the phone, "I’m not coming back today."
From the gentle tone of his voice, Ji Yunhuan could easily tell who was on the other end of the call. Who else could it be but Cheng Yanxi?
When even with people from the Qi Family, Qi Cheng never spoke so politely.
Ji Yunhuan turned over and got up just in time to see Qi Cheng hang up the phone. He looked at her, "You’re awake?"
"Whose call was it?" Ji Yunhuan asked, looking into his eyes.
"Yanxi’s, asking if I’m coming back. I told her I’m not going back for now." Qi Cheng looked at Ji Yunhuan cautiously, "You wouldn’t be upset just because I was on the phone with her, right?"
He’s really afraid of Ji Yunhuan being unhappy now.
